"Heart of my heart, I know you from afar:
There is a measure of such recognition.
There is a sign that is all intuition:
In your strange eyes I see my rising star.Did blue-green musky moth-wings waft you down
To bear me tidings from the skies of night
And, softly glowing in my soul's own light,
To wash me in your tresses softly blown ?
It all seems long since gone as in a dream
That came and vanished centuries ago
Whose fireless shapes can only feebly glow
And feed the currents of a nostalgic stream
Whose phosphor images before me flow
To seas of final thought, so timeless slow.
If you should ever dream my love grown cold
Or wasting slowly with the pace of time,
Or deem my kisses are but leaden gold,
And that my love lives only in my rhyme.
If such grey thoughts in sunless days you cherish,
Believe, beloved one, it is not so ---
How could be slain, what slain makes life to perish,
And how deny my love whence I do grow ?
You are the sweetness of a springtime promise
You are like shining dawn when night is gone ---
In you there glows mysterious surmise,
your eyes bestow the peace of heavens won.
All is still yours when all of this is dust,
For Love was my pen, and my pen's word your trust"
lotusheartone is thinking of everyone and missing us on Thanksgiving day.
I have posted these phrases from Gooberz, as lotusheartone wanted to convey these melodies :
To Goober,
From her
Thank you!
